Sullivan's Island: A Beach House Tour

I know I told you yesterday that I'd share some of the glitches we've encountered so far in our master bathroom renovation, but I just can't bring myself to do it tonight. I had a great day at work, a fabulous date night with David (sushi, of course!) and got to top it off with a new episode of Gossip Girl. Oh and Brad didn't kick Emily off yet- yesssss! Can't go wrong with that combo.

So I'll save the shop talk for another time.

Wednesday or Thursday, perhaps? (for those of you who like gory renovating details like me!)

On a completely different note, I've been eying lots of beautiful beach houses lately. I'm sure that seeking out the summer is a pretty normal response for many of you out there dealing with this cold, dreary January weather (and hey- I know that I can't complain too much since I'm sure many of you have it much colder than me here in Georgia!). I guess I'm just craving some good ol' sunshine.

Enter one of my favorite cities in the world- Charleston, South Carolina.

I spent four years in the holy city, earning my undergraduate degree at the College of Charleston (and maaaaybe I spent just a few hours shopping on King Street, laying out at Folly Beach and buying drinks at Blind Tiger). I loved Charleston, immensely. It's just one of the places I connected with and now I am counting down the minutes until I can someday call it my home again.

Until I'm back in South Cackalackey, I'll just drool over Charleston Magazine.

This non-traditional, Caribbean-meets-Lowcountry beach house plasters a big smile on my face. I can just taste the oysters, salt water and Lowcountry boil now!

I am so glad you watch the Bachelor and Gossip Girl, two if my favorites! I hope Emily wins, although I am hearing rumors from Charlotte that she gets to the final two and he then picks Chantel. Love the beach house pics! You know I love it here!

{sigh} ... the hubs & I JUST moved from Charleston back to Greenville NC ... and I miss it SO much! Do you think that everyone who has lived in Charleston will always hold a SERIOUS love for it? I do! cheesy? maybe!

I never realized how many of you are/were Charlestonians! Just goes to show me even more that ya'll have some fabulous style! Sounds to me like we need to plan a big meet up and reunite with our lovely city! :)

SOOOOoooooo...would it be weird to ask you when you do move back there if I can come visit? I LOVE the photos you displayed...and to think you went to school in that environment. I can't imagine studying Organic Chemistry amid all that sun....or maybe I would have gotten an A had I. :)

Oh you and I could be BEST friends, hehe! Im actually from Sunny Orlando (which btw is not as exciting as it may sound)! I LOVE living in the SOUTH and I LOVE Charleston!!! One of my great friends went to College of Charleston! I would LOVE to live right there over looking the water! What a great place. This weather makes me want to see the sun and wear flip flops again!!! Take care and enjoy what's left of the winter!
